October is the nationally-recognized month to offer support to those suffering with ADHD (Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder). During a time when prescription and medical costs are higher than they have ever been, Medicationdiscountcard.com works to grant assistance to consumers who are financially strapped, or those who just wish to save money on prescription costs.

ADHD

Diagnosing ADHD is just as complicated as the disease. There is no one-stop-shop test that can confirm a diagnosis of ADHD. Those who believe they may be afflicted usually begin their treatment by seeing their primary care physician. That physician will then probably refer the patient to a psychologist/psychiatrist for further testing. Because the illness strikes at the brain, a notoriously under-studied organ, discovering ADHD can take a long time. Treatment usually involves drug therapy, as well as counseling and behavior modification — when deemed necessary. Sometimes these medications can be costly, and must be taken over a long period of time.

Stimulants

In an action that is not well-understood, researchers have found that stimulants have the reversed effect on those who suffer with ADHD. Rather than "speeding them up," stimulants often serve to slow down the erratic brain processes that force ADHD sufferers into non-normal behavior. Unfortunately, though, these stimulants come with a wide-range of side effects, and are known to be targets of drug-abuse. Using a Vyvanse Coupon, Adderall Coupon, a Ritalin discount card, or a Daytrana coupon can save consumers money on the costs of these prescriptions at the pharmacy.

Non-Stimulants

Some practitioners prefer to treat ADHD with non-stimulants. These drugs still target the affected portions of the brain, but do so in a different way. Many of them are time-released, and work to counter the emotional devastation of the disease Such drugs tend to have fewer side effects and create a smaller propensity for abuse by patients. Although this may be true, abuse is always a danger, and side effects are never fully eliminated with any drug use. Anyone may print a Strattera coupon, or an Intuniv discount card to use with their prescription.

ADHD is a relatively common behavioral disorder. It affects about 10 percent of school-age children, but is not limited to age, race, gender, or mental acuity. ADHD strikes all types of people, and can erupt at different stages of life. ADHD is a complicated, and often little understood, disorder related to the processes going on in the human brain. For children, it usually manifests as an inability to focus very long on one topic, hyperactivity that is disproportionately more than for other children the same age, and a distinct lack of impulse control. For years, practitioners have battled the "kids will be kids" charge levied at young ADHD sufferers. For those who study the disorder, education is key — the message being that those who suffer from ADHD are not just temporarily-manic, they are afflicted.
